I took my first hit of vape last Friday, and this is what my shelf looks like since the mailman came today:

But there's more on order, and I intend to go back to the vape shop this weekend. :cool:

Payday for me today. I'm just doing my online banking, and working out if my leccy company will wait another month before I pay their bill so I can order a few new shiny things to satisfy my magpie genetics ;-) So probably asking the wrong person ;-)

hahahahah being a college kid, it's even worse over here. The only reason why I stopped at whatever orders I have coming in the mail today is because I'm desperately trying to save up for a provari. this is pretty much the only negative thing about vaping compared to analogs. With analogs, I buy the exact same pack only whenever I need it. With vaping....... THERE'S JUST SO MANY TOYS OUT THERE!!!

I still have 50 or so flavors from Black Friday/Cyber Monday that I haven't even opened yet. :p
OOOOOOOH. and they're just about ripe from steeping...... if I were you I'd be going absolutely nuts right now. Probably spend the entire weekend trying on em, washing out the tanks, putting new ones in. Repeat 50 times and get reaaaally buzzed from the nicotine. oh man... I'm jealous.

I can usually find 1 in 20 or so that I like from a local outlet and a bit better odds with non-local orders. Some get better with time and some only get used as a slight flavor infusion. Bottles of various sizes all over my counter; steeping here and there, fruits in rows, coffee's clustered, tobacco's mingled and mints tossed. Too bad something specifically named French Vanilla can be so horrible or so good depending on the source.

I usually carry 3 devices each with a different mix. Gotta love those days when they all taste great all day! Today wasn't a great flavor day!

I too have this get more issue. Just bought 8 juices last night. But I have found several all days juices for me. I want variety too though. I really think for me there is a fear that juices will all of a sudden become unavailable due to sudden legislative action. That drives me to be stocked. Anyone else thinking this way?

When I saw this title, I started laughing. I too can't stop buying juices. Even though I HAVE found juices I like. I like variety. Don't forget you can mix juices you have with each other too. If you find a tobacco you like you can pick any type of fruit you like and/or menthol you like separately and add it as you like.

What are you looking for in a juice?
Besides flavor - nothing.

Sounds like you should have some basic direction and some flavor profile that should help you narrow your search.
(you have so many juices already)

When i hear/see how awesome some bakery juice is ... i just ignore it... im not into bakery flavors.
When i hear/see how awesome some straight up fruit juice is .. .i just ignore it unless it is:
tobacco based and preferably mentions similar to cigar (apple, peach, cherry, i can consider)
When i hear/see how similar something smells exactly like XXXXXX brand of smokes ... i just ignore it cuz it's a lie.
When i hear/see how awesome some coffee flavor is ... i WAS chasing these down ... and learned, i don't really want coffee that much in my vape.

Really easy to eliminate/refine your search by taste.
BUT, afterall , i do have a reference point ... my go to vape (midnight apple by halo).
If you have no go-to vape, you cannot really do any comparisons.

or.. .maybe you're just OCD and happen to be focusing in on ejuice and in this case, you are beyond help!
:facepalm:

point here:
1. narrow your search
2. stop buying against glowing specific juice reviews - taste reviews are meaningless unless they are reviewing something that should have similarities to your all day vape.
3. think of other people, don't spend money on yourself! (this is a cheer, not a directive)

:2c:

I need help. I'm still desperately trying to find my daily vape, and I can't stop buying eliquids! I currently have a shelf of eliquids, and have 430ml of em coming through the mail. Boba's bounty... Gandalf.... Hx3.... Oh god I probably have an account in every single eliquid site now.

So now instead of having a caffeine and nicotine addiction, I also have an eliquid-buying addiction. :(

And the fact that I have a 3 weeks steeping period? Someone cut my credit card and tie me up now!

You are right In the sense that the only missing piece of puzzle for me is flavor. I've never been much of a vapor production guy, but throat hit and flavor are key for me. At 12mg nic + 50-50 VG/pg, with the aspire Bdc and cotton wicks, I've found that almost all ejuice gives me a solid throat hit so that's no longer smth I fret about.

Like you, I steer clear of any bakery juice, pure fruit juice, and while I would die to have a coffee vape, I've already given up. No one does a decent coffee vape.

I do have a point of reference for my daily tobacco vape. HHV's dragon fire, except I need that PLUS a much much much stronger and richer tobacco flavor. Hoping that legend(gandalf) or halo's hx3 is it.

In any case points duly noted. My latest 400+ mls are all with strong tobacco profiles. So I pray it works out. Cheers!
